So, ive been going to starbucks for years now. At the one i go to they ask you your name to write it on the cup. Since theyve known me since before i started my transition, they know my birth name. When i order, since they alll know who i am, they just automatically write my name on the cup, and call it out when my coffees ready. i get a lot of strange looks. Anyone have any advice as to how i can come out to them in a nice way, without making it akward for them. im very shy and passive and not sure how to go about this.
Thanks in advanced,
Michael :)
If you are presenting male maybe just give them the corrected name when you order. They shouldn't care as they are just happy for a sale and dont want to confuse orders.
Or change to different starbucks :-\
I would just come right out and tell them, "Btw, I changed my name, It's ___." I can't imagine they would care sine you are their business.
OK thanks guys! Ill have to just go for it tommorow morning when i order
